Professional navigation solution for trucks (heavy goods vehicles), mobile homes and caravans. Use the Caravan, Camper and Truck specific maps and you don’t have to worry about driving on roads unfit for your vehicle. The maps use vehicle height, width, length, weight and allowed speed as parameters for route calculation. You only have to set the parameters once to avoid problems every time you drive.

The BASS button next to the central control knob takes you directly to the advanced bass level adjustment function. As you choose one of the six levels, it automatically adjusts frequency cut-off, Q factor and subwoofer level for optimum sound quality and tonal balance.

Parametric equalizers are multi-band variable equalisers which allow users to control the three primary parameters: amplitude, centre frequency and bandwidth.

Digital Time Correction

This unit is able to delay the audio signal to the speakers closest to the listener. This effectively creates a perception of increased distance for those speakers. The listener can be placed at an equal distance between the left and right speakers for optimum staging.
